Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✗
Chassis management controller failover
Why it's wrong here
CMC failover is for chassis management redundancy, not server configuration.
- ✗
Automatic firmware synchronization
Why it's wrong here
Firmware sync is a separate policy; it does not replace the identity configuration.
- ✗
UCS Manager auto-discovery
Why it's wrong here
Auto-discovery finds new hardware but does not apply previous configuration automatically.
- ✓
Stateless computing using service profiles
Why this is correct
Service profiles abstract hardware identity, enabling seamless replacement.
